Being the cheapass that i am, i can't afford to get some fancy ruberrized coating on my pen. So here are some methods and tips i came up with to get some more grip.
You can get some rubber pen grips at a stationery/dollar store for VERY cheap, and they come in all kinds of colors and textures.
Pros:
Cheap and Small
Can be adjusted to your preferred height
Lasts a LOT of time
Cons:
Messes with your pen's aesthetic
Makes the spot you put it on thicker
Alternatively, if you don't want to leave home, you can just grab some object that has a thickness similar to your pen and use hot glue to make a grip, and the take it off of the object and put it on your pen. This one has alittle less grip than normal pen grips.
Get a eraser (preferrably of the same color of your pen/mouse) and rub it throughly on your device. Harder erasers give off a better grip, in my experience.
Pros:
Works great
Is easy to replace
Doesn't interfere with aesthetic
Cons:
Fades off, so you will have to rub your pen/mouse multiple times a day.
This is the method i personally have started using.
Rubber gloves are great, but be sure to get the surgical type, not the gardening type

Number 3: Surgical Glove
Rubber gloves are great, but be sure to get the surgical type, not the gardening type
Pros:
- Doesn't let sweat pass through
- Makes your hand have more grip
- Keeps your stuff clean
Cons:
- Makes your hand a little bit less flexible
- After extended time of play, your hand will get hot
- You'll have to discard some gloves
Tips for keeping sweat off your hands
- Wash your hands often with cold water, and dry them throughly.
- Keep some cloth near you to dry your hands (your shirt works too)
- Pass some odorless deodorant on your hands , preferrably the kind that comes as a cream. Don't over do it just pass a little bit to keep your hands dry (The cream kind also gives your hand a little bit more grip).
